A tiny block of Beverly Hills called Hidden Valley is teeming with celebrities — and it’s where Grammy-winning singer Adele has not one but two multimillion-dollar homes.
The neighborhood has proven to be a good one for the 32-year-old star, whose neighbors include best friend Jennifer Lawrence, Camera Diaz, and Nicole Richie.
Not only have have her A-list neighbors become friends, but some have even helped Adele shed an impressive 100lbs.

First house: In 2016, Adele purchased a four-bedroom, six-bathroom home for $9.5 million, complete with pool and summerhouse
Doubling up: Adele bought this six-bed property opposite her other home for $10.65 million in May 2019
Cool place to live! She has a dozen celebrity neighbors who all live nearby, many of whom are good friends
Adele loves the block so much that she’s spent millions snapping up two back-to-back properties. One is thought to be for her ex-husband Simon Konecki, whom she finally divorced last month.
In 2016, Adele purchased a four-bedroom, six-bathroom home for $9.5 million, complete with pool and summerhouse, directly across the road from her best friend Lawrence’s five-bed $8.2 million property.
After splitting up from Konecki last April, Adele clearly didn’t want to break the family dynamic. The following month, she bought the six-bed property opposite for $10.65 million, so that her former spouse could still be close to their son Angelo, seven.
Adele’s neighborhood is certainly a celebrity hotspot, counting Nicole Kidman and Penelope Cruz as residents. It’s also just a stone’s throw from Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s temporary $18 million home, owned by Tyler Perry.
Most of the A-listers have become firm buddies with the star, who recently showed off her amazing weight loss in an Instagram snap to celebrate her 32nd birthday.
And several, it seems, have helped her get fit.

Lawrence’s personal trainer, Dalton Wong, is the one that whipped Adele into shape. He met J-Law in 2010, and overhauled her diet and exercise plan for the X-Men film franchise.
The actress wrote a foreword to his book, crediting him for the dramatic body transformation, She said: ‘He changed my body for that movie but gave me the skills to change my life. I could never live on a diet. Dalton taught me how to eat, move, and live a delicious but healthy life.’
Adele was also on top of her nutrition, despite not being a ‘fan of cooking,’ thanks to a celebrity chef recommended by actress Cameron Diaz, who lives with husband Benji Madden just a few houses down the road.
They are just three parts of a ‘fab five,’ who live yards from each other and also include Nicole Richie, Ashton Kutcher’s wife Mila Kunis, and actress Zoe Saldana.
They have shared wild nights in Los Angeles and, in one instance, wore matching pink jackets calling themselves the ‘Boom Boom Posse.’
Richie, who lives directly opposite Adele, has become part of her inner circle since Adele made Los Angeles her permanent home in 2016. Nicole is married to Joel Madden, and was featured in a never-before-seen snap of a super-slim Adele and wellness guru Jedidiah Jenkins during a recent trip to Las Vegas, which was posted online by Aaron Paul’s wife Lauren.

Out of 33 properties in Hidden Valley, 11 are owned by mega-stars, which also include Katy Perry, Nicole Kidman and husband Keith Urban, and Penelope Cruz and partner Javier Bardem.
Perry could have been the one to put Adele off high-calorie food for life after she disclosed in 2017 that Adele had stolen her burrito, as she’d never eaten one before.
They also share a love of crystal healing stones. Perry says that she ‘carries a lot of rose quartz, which attracts the male,’ while Adele uses them to calm her nerves.
Kutcher and Kunis, whose two-story $10.2 million mansion backs onto Adele’s, are also big fans of the singer. Kutcher jokingly blamed Adele for the mustache he sported last year, after he debuted it at the singer’s ’70s-themed 31st birthday party.
He told Jimmy Kimmel: ‘My wife has a friend, who’s this very famous English singer, let’s just say, and she throws these birthday parties and they’re kind of lavish,’ before stating he got ‘payback’ on his wife by keeping the mustache.
